GSK626616 is an orally available, ATP-competitive, potent and selective dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation-regulated kinase DYRK inhibitor (DYRK3 IC50 = 0.7 nM; similar potency against DYRK1A and DYRK2) with 20-fold selectivity over the closed related casein kinase 2. GSK626616 enhances Epo-stimulated increase of human marrow erythroid colony formation units (CFU-E), without affecting megakaryocyte colony growth or CFU-GM formation. GSK626616 enhances the percentage and number of Ter119+/CD71+ erythroid progenitors derived from kit+ mouse marrow in the presence of SCF and Epo in cultures, and exhibits therapeutic efficacy in a murine anemia model in vivo (0.03 mg/kg/d i.p.)
Orally available, ATP-competitive, potent and selective dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation-regulated kinase DYRK1A/DYRK2/DYRK3 inhibitor in vitro and in vivo.

Dual-specificity tyrosine-regulated kinases (DYRKs) auto-phosphorylate a critical tyrosine residue in their activation loop and phosphorylate their substrate on serine and threonine residues. The auto-phosphorylation occurs intramolecularly and is a one-off event. DYRK3 is selectively expressed at a high level in
Cytosolic compartmentalization through liquid-liquid unmixing, such as the formation of RNA granules, is involved in many cellular processes and might be used to regulate signal transduction. However, specific molecular mechanisms by which liquid-liquid unmixing and signal transduction are coupled remain
δ-secretase, also known as asparagine endopeptidase (AEP) or legumain, is a lysosomal cysteine protease that cleaves both amyloid precursor protein (APP) and tau, mediating the amyloid-β and tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Here we report the therapeutic effect of
Liquid-liquid phase separation has been shown to underlie the formation and disassembly of membraneless organelles in cells, but the cellular mechanisms that control this phenomenon are poorly understood. A prominent example of regulated and reversible segregation of liquid phases may
Stress granules (SGs) are dynamic condensates associated with protein misfolding diseases. They sequester stalled mRNAs and signaling factors, such as the mTORC1 subunit raptor, suggesting that SGs coordinate cell growth during and after stress. However, the molecular mechanisms linking SG
